    I like what these guys are doing:

    Link to video

    Basically they bought a bunch of new cars, drive each of them 100,000 kilometers, then report on their findings (any change in performance, maintenance issues big and small, cost of operation and maintenance over the 100,000 km, etc.).

    Their first installment reported on tests done on a Mercedes Benz and an Audi:

    The caption has English translation.

    There is suppose to be one more video where they take the cars apart to check wear and tear on all the parts, that I also look forward to.

      Bullet points would be helpful.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          100K km is only 62K miles. They are all good that long. It's after 60K that they start nickel and diming you.

          Tell me how they do at 200K miles.
